What is the usually age and size for a ball python to be switched over to small rats that are about 4-6weeks old and 46-79grams. My ball python is 6months about 205grams and 20-24" and i currently have her on weaned rats and adult mice, when should i switch her over to small mice? Is it ok to switch her over now to small rats at her size? Someone wrote before that from 3 months small rats are no problem for ball pythons. So please help me decide what i should do.
